Maybe this is not GP related material, but i found this quite meaningful. This was adapted by the movie coach carter. One of the player said this to the coach when the coach was made to quit his job as the coach by the player's parents and the community as he benched their winning team from playing due to bad academic results.
Our Greatest Fear
Marianne Williamson from her book "A Return to Love"
Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,gorgeous, handsome, talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.There is nothing enlightened about shrinkingso that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us.It is not just in some; it is in everyone.
And, as we let our own light shine, we consciously giveother people permission to do the same.As we are liberated from our fear,our presence automatically liberates others.
